The mental space is a fascial space of the head and neck (also termed fascial spaces or tissue spaces). It is a potential space bilaterally located in the chin between the mentalis muscle superiorly and the platysma muscle inferiorly. These spaces may be created by pathology e.g. the spread of odontogenic infection.
